| 33 | <application>PulseAudio</application> is a sound system for POSIX OSes,
|
|---|
| 34 | meaning that it is a proxy for sound applications. It allows you to do
|
|---|
| 35 | advanced operations on your sound data as it passes between your
|
|---|
| 36 | application and your hardware. Things like transferring the audio to a
|
|---|
| 37 | different machine, changing the sample format or channel count and mixing
|
|---|
| 38 | several sounds into one are easily achieved using a sound server.

| 256 | You may have to configure the audio system. You can start

| 257 | <application>pulseaudio</application> in command line mode using
|
|---|
| 258 | <command>pulseaudio -C</command> and then list various
|
|---|
| 259 | information and change settings. See

| 272 | run: <command>pactl list short sinks</command> followed by:

| 278 | If that does not work, a more drastic approach often works. After closing

| 279 | the application, close pulseaudio, either using <command>pulseaudio
|
|---|
| 280 | --kill</command> or, if that fails, <command>killall -KILL
|

| 281 | pulseaudio</command> and then <command>rm -rf

|
|---|
| 283 | <command>rm -rf ~/.pulse/*</command> if you have used a very old version
|
|---|
| 284 | of pulse on this machine), then run <command>pulseaudio
|
|---|
| 285 | --verbose</command> to restart it. If the daemon starts, restart the

| 286 | application. See <command>man pulseaudio</command> for more options.
